And so all life Perception is within my hearing So I sit down to a blank page All white with lines of blue sky and a red line of love But it's all leftevers from the crock of shit life tried to feed me I stand firm on my ground of value Airalin drops down from herself creating clouds in the doorway Sometimes saying things to a computer screen is easier than saying them to paper or voice or face one strives to live without illusion only to find life itslef not worth living the mortal paradox no less and so it is impaled upon me And I can no longer turn my head away Funny how darkness is blinding Interesting how easy it is to wear a mask logical that others can not face you without a face so does that make us the gods? Yes. Yes it does. And company is all one needs and all one never gets for you must put on a mask to deal with others without faces but then you yourself can never find a face when you're wearing a mask again the mortal paradox it all leads back to Life we exist and think and feel and rationalize our universe therefore we are a paradox i used to wonder who or what could be so cruel as to give us this ability of higher thought merely so we could find out that we are nothing but now i know there's nothing there to show us nothing we are a paradox but yet we live and die and so everyday we knowingly self-destruct why. that is the Ultimate question and there is no answer because there is nothing to answer us and so all life goes on and I finish listening to perception
